Fin had got was TOO great for him to over

its shallow, sluggish way along, Fin
stopped.

Saved from Sabbath Breaking.

The announcement in the Sunday
papers, that is, the News and Courier,
The Sun, and the Charleston Dispatch
that professional game of ball would
be played in Charleston on Sunday was
read with astonishment and even
amazement by majority of the whole
State. We confess that we were great
ly surprised and turned eagerly to the
editorial columns OF the papers but not
word was said in any of them either
approving or condemning the propos-
ed violation of the Sabbath. 1t was
gratifying to learn Monday that the
game was not played on account OF
the wholesale indignation OF the clti-
zens of Charleston expressed through
their ministers of the Gospel. Now,
both the News and Courier, and the
Sun are loud in their apologies for
not disapproving editorially this IN
tended desecration Of Gods Day. The
News and Courier excuses itself on
the ground that Captain Dawson did
not know anything of the matter, and
the Sun prays forgiveness because its
editorial page had already been made
up for the press. Both weighty ez-
cuses in the eyes of their respective
readers!
The good people of Charleston
have saved that city from disgrace
that the rest of the State would not
have soon forgotten. South Carolin
ians have not been taught to receive
with favor any open violation of Gods
appointed day Of rest. Happily for
our State thus far, base ball playing
Or any other public amusement : on
Sunday is not received with favor. Our
people are taught to respect the Sab
bath day and it will be sad day for
South Carolinr if the cosmopolitan
immigration to our country eradlcates
this respect Of holy things.

A Gala Day in Charleston.
MEETING LAST SATURDAY.

It was not until Fniday about noon
that we found ourself entering tie city
of Charleston by way of the North
eastern Railroad. a little girl in the
doorway Of one of the numerous brick
houses on the bluff of the Cooper Ri
yer. first reminded us of the great ca
nival then IN progress, by greeting the
ingoiDg train, waving little red and
white flag upon which was printed in
bold letters the word "Welcome. .
There was nothing unusual to be seen
at this depot and We entered a Bay
street car quite crestfallen. This feel
ing. however, was soon dissipated as
We left the car and in few minutes
entered Meeting street. The scene

tryman just from the forests Of leaaess

giants was indescribably beautiful.
Banners, flags, variegated lantens,
fsstoons, in profu u decorated every
building and frequently extended from
street to street. At this point we
entered the Pavilion Hotel presided
over by its hospitable and accom-
modating proprietor, Mr.. Gail
lard. A refreshing bath and King
Street was our next rendezvous. As
grand as Meeting Street, first appear
cd it paled before the magnificent
spectacle presented by this miniature
Broadway. We were charmed and
delighted and after several hours
found ourself ainlessly wandering
about gazing at the many attractions
to be seen, There was plenty OF
company with us; the street was fill
ed with moving mass seemingly in
tent on the same purpose. The sight
was well worth a journey to see
a thing Of beauty long worth remem-
beriug.
We were too late in reaching the
City to witness the numerous parades
and exhibitions. The brilliant pyro-
technic.aisnsay, the mammoth trade
displa rotesque fantastic par
ade We over. We were IN time
howeverfo witness game OF ball
ietvesh fbe St. Louis and Chicago
clubs and the Venetian display on the
harbor Friday night. Speaking OF
the latter the Charleston Dispatch
says: ':The very sea SCENE: to be
breathing fire as it rose and fell. 1t
lasted several hours and was a splen-
did pyrotechnic exhibition. The
crowd which witnessed it will surely
never forget it" The attendance at
the opera Friday night wound up our
amusement for the night and earl;
Saturday morning we were en- route
for Manning, carrying with us the
most pleasant recollections of an
eventful day spent in the City By the
sea.

New England English.


 The same Englishwoman told the Atheni- an of an amusing experience which grew out of misunderstanding on her own part shortly after she came to this country few months ago. She kindly volunteered to serve for night as amateur nurse for sick friend. The patient was so weak that she could hardly whisper a word or two to tell her wants, but the nurse was so jealous and attentive that the feeblest lisp of a want was filled at once. With an Englishwoman s faith in fresh air, she took care to open the window so that the room was we'll ventilated, though no draft could reach the patient. Still the atmosphere became decidedly cooler and the sick woman felt the change. Beck oning her nurse to the bedside with wish full look, she whispered softly in her ear, tsComforter."
 The one word was enough. With wo- mans quick wit she guessed what her friend wished for at once and set off down stairs in quest of the family Bible. Having found it after short search, she lugged 1t up stairs again with considerable exertion, for it was heavily illustrated and bound, and set it down triumphantly on the patients bed.
 To her surprise the sick woman said "No!' plainly with her speaking eyes and moved her head slightly in token of dissent. Again the energetic nurse set off undiscouraged and hunted up the patients husband, whom she brought hopefully to the sick-room. Troubled and surprised at the unsatis6ed look of the sick woman, she went off again without thinking of giving up the search, and this time "rounded up" the family pas. tor, taking the good man from his house just as he was retiring for the night. When the com bined efforts of the three succeeded in putting a warm coverlet on the bed the nurse sat down, fairly exhausted by her struggle to master New England English.

REFORM sN NEW YORK.

Anything that shows the progress of civil service reform is interesting and important to the people of this country, many of whom believe in it. The testimony of MT. Grace, who has just retired from the mayors office in New York, to the working and value oi the reform during his administration is cheering and valuable.
 When Mayor Grace went into office the civil service law had been in force but few months. Some regulations for governing the service and a system of classification had been promulgated; but the former, he says following those governing the State service were unequal to the needs of the great muni cipa1 force, and the latter was faulty and in. consistent. He tells about great change. Being a firm believer in the civil service scheme as the destroyer of the spoil system he retained the skilful and trusty supervisory board and reorganized the entire bureau, creating new examining board, four of whose six members are officials of high standing in the departments, and appointing MT. Charles H. Woodman, whom he knew t. be a practical man of energy and judgment, as executive officer and chief examiner. The result has been remarkable. Regulations as amended from time to time have grown more rigid in general principles and more adapted to special needs. The examinations have be- come severer, yet more practical, and the standard of qualification has been raised. There are over 1000 positions in the city de, partments filled by competitive examination, or nearly half as many in the entire United States government service. In the first year of Mayor Grace's adm illustration 2,500 were examined for positions and the appointments numbered 1900. He says: This influx of men whose appointments were based upon character and qualifications has vastly improved the personnel of the departments. I can safely say that there never was time when there were many competent men among the city's employees as at present. The best proof of the thorough ness with which the system has been admin istered by Mir. Woodman is that the various departments have been brought into sym pathy with the reform, and the standard of official service and morality has thereby been greatly elevated.
 All this is decidedly encouraging. But was it in the interest of the great reform that Mayor Grace helped ''Fatty'' Walsh to be warden of the Tombs?
